General Announcements 

Pray for Our Bishops campaign set for Nov. 12-14

Pray for Our Bishops, a campaign of prayer and reparation developed by members of St. John the Apostle Parish in Bloomington, is being planned to coincide with the annual fall general assembly of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in Baltimore, Md., from Nov. 12-14.

The mission of the campaign is to invite Catholics across the country to commit to prayer and fasting during the three days.

Participants will commit to withdrawal from the world as much as is prudently possible, fasting according to one’s means, and eucharistic-centered prayer with a special emphasis on adoration from 3-4 p.m.—the hour of mercy—each day.

In addition to Indiana, other states participating include Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas.

To learn more about the campaign, visit www.prayforourbishops.com.
